	Jul. 19, 2012 3:05 am Good morning! I'm making these tonight with homemade mac & cheese & a salad. FINALLY rained here thru the night....still sprinkling. Hurray! Hopefully it cooled down but I haven't stepped outside or checked the weather report yet. Have a GREAT day!!

	Cheryl's Cooking Now! Jul. 19, 2012 3:24 am Glad to hear you got some rain. We haven't seen rain in a week!

	lovestohost Jul. 19, 2012 3:36 am Mmmmmm, mac & cheese! It rained here, too, and I thought it was cooler/less humid when I walked out the door. That lasted until about 1/4 mile into my run when I realized it was wishful thinking. Our living room did drop 7 degrees overnight to a balmy 79, though....

	Elle-NO! I'm NOT Jul. 19, 2012 4:06 am Sounds good! I haven't had mac & cheese in forever. Maybe tomorrow....

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 4:27 am We got some much needed rain yesterday also. More expected today. We're still way below normal so I hope we get it, but I hope the storms aren't severe. Scares me!

	Lucky Noodles NOT a Jul. 19, 2012 4:58 am Good morning everyone. We were teased with thunder and some lightening with rain everywhere around us. Finally got some but not nearly enough. Hoping to get more rain today!

	Deb C Jul. 19, 2012 5:28 am My husband would love this dish. So, my rain dance worked huh? :)

	Lucky Noodles NOT a Jul. 19, 2012 5:33 am Deb, keep dancing! We need sooooooo much more rain! Everyone says we have no corn crop to save, it is gone. Our grocery prices are going to skyrocket!

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 5:33 am Hi Deb, it worked for us. We got about an inch of rain yesterday! Keep dancing! We still need more :~)

	Brenda Jul. 19, 2012 5:41 am Sounds yummy, Lisa! I think I have some salmon to use up...maybe this is what I will make too! we haven't had a drop of rain in a week and a half. The humidity is unbearable here.

	kellieann Jul. 19, 2012 11:41 am These were pretty good. I couldn't believe how many bones my can of salmon had in it though, ugh!

Recommended by: Cheryl's Cooking Now!
	Jul. 19, 2012 3:22 am Good morning! I have a little spaghetti sauce leftover from yesterday, so, I plan to grill the chicken instead of baking. Hopefully I can do it all on the grill. Just lay down foil. Having green beans and slaw for the sides. Have a great day!

Hot Ponderosas!

Submitted by: MCMIGUEL

Baguette slices are soaked in a delicious butter, cheese, and herb mixture, then grilled until toasty.

Recommended by: lovestohost
	Jul. 19, 2012 3:33 am I saw you made this in the "Newest Reviews", Christina and I have to tell you, when I originally saw the recipes yesterday (prior to your review), my first thought was Christina (and many of the other WFDerers) would love this!

Comments:
	Cheryl's Cooking Now! Jul. 19, 2012 3:46 am Sounds good!

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 4:29 am I saved this when I saw it yesterday too! Sounds yummy!

	Molly Jul. 19, 2012 4:39 am I think I will make this tonight to go with our chicken. I will have to make DH & DS with feta and I will make mine with bleu cheese.

	Christina Jul. 19, 2012 4:46 am Hahaha, LTH, as soon as I saw this I thought 'how come I've never seen this before...I must try it' lol. I just happened to have like a 1/2 of a baguette, so... Molly, the amounts seem off, IMO, so I'd play w/ it a bit. I just eyeballed everything, but it was good!

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 4:59 am Christina, did you actually dunk the bread in all that butter. Not sure I could do that. Too much butter?

	Molly Jul. 19, 2012 5:06 am Thanks Christina - That is what I will do, especially since I won't be making an entire loaf. I've never used herbs de Provence, so I will have to sub. Is that a spice I should invest in?

	Christina Jul. 19, 2012 5:27 am No belle, I just toasted the one side of the bread, flipped it over and spooned the mixture on the other side, then broiled until done. Molly, I have no idea what herbes de Provence is, lol, so I just subbed a bit of Italian seasoning (not sure how similar they are, but it worked, lol).

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 5:32 am Christina, that sounds much better to me. May have to try these this weekend. And I don't have herbes de Provence either, lol!

	Deb C Jul. 19, 2012 5:32 am Saved - this sounds fabulous. BTW if you are looking for the herbs, I got my herbs de Provence at Home Goods, or TJ Maxx or one of those and is good quality and wasn't expensive.

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 5:37 am Thanks Deb, good to know!

	Jul. 19, 2012 3:34 am I think this will be dinner for us to use up some red pepper before we're Seattle bound! Have a good one, everyone!

Comments:
	Cheryl's Cooking Now! Jul. 19, 2012 3:47 am Saved both recipes!

	lovestohost Jul. 19, 2012 3:49 am We really like this one and it's great to use up red bell peppers before they go bad! It's a great last minute recipe that uses staples (as long as you have red bell peppers :) ). I'm looking forward to trying the Hot Ponderosa, too, but not until we have company so I don't eat it all!!!

	Cheryl's Cooking Now! Jul. 19, 2012 4:02 am lol!

Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas

Submitted by: EFasse

Home Town: Lake Zurich, Illinois, USA

Living In: Bolingbrook, Illinois, USA

These black bean and corn quesadillas are really cheesy, a little bit spicy, and a little bit sweet. My vegetarian husband goes crazy over these every time! Feel free to play around and add chicken or veggies, if you desire. Don't forget the salsa and sour cream!

Recommended by: Elle-NO! I'm NOT
	Jul. 19, 2012 3:54 am Good morning! Keeping it simple-quesadillas (with chicken, also) and a basic green salad. Have a great day!

Comments:
	It's A New Day Jul. 19, 2012 4:01 am Love these!

	lovestohost Jul. 19, 2012 4:15 am I love these, too! I like to keep extra filling in the freezer for quick lunches.

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 4:35 am Yep, we loved these too, although I confess I made a ton of changes.

	lovestohost Jul. 19, 2012 4:38 am (Me, too; I think they're kind of bland as written :) )

	Molly Jul. 19, 2012 4:40 am We love these, I also freeze the extra filling for another meal.

	lovestohost Jul. 19, 2012 4:25 am I've never seen a purple bell pepper!

	Molly Jul. 19, 2012 4:42 am We grew purple peppers last year along with white and chocolate brown ones. Not a lot of difference in taste, but they sure make for a pretty salad with all the colors.

	Cheryl's Cooking Now! Jul. 19, 2012 4:42 am Me either, how does it tastes? sweet? hot? mild?

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 4:46 am I've had a purple pepper, but I've never seen a white or brown one!

	crunchy Jul. 19, 2012 5:13 am i have purple, red and yellow growing- i haven't tasted the purple yet...i hope its sweet :)

	lovestohost Jul. 19, 2012 4:28 am Can never go wrong w/pizza...

	Cheryl's Cooking Now! Jul. 19, 2012 4:46 am Belle, so glad your AC is working! It's another scorcher out there today.

	Cheryl's Cooking Now! Jul. 19, 2012 4:48 am I'm going to surprise my son with your flatbread recipe. I have a toaster oven, so, I'll pop them in there. Flatbread will go well with the chk parmesan I'm having :)

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 4:49 am Thanks luv! It was up and running yesterday about noon, but it took the entire rest of the day to get the house cooled down. Gonna be 90+ here today and the humidity is brutal.

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 4:53 am luv, I hope he still loves it! :~)

	Lucky Noodles NOT a Jul. 19, 2012 5:03 am Belle, so happy your AC is running again! Neighbors told us they had to replace their entire 9 year old unit. Ours is 11 so I am crossing my fingers and toes it makes it through this season!

	Cheryl's Cooking Now! Jul. 19, 2012 5:10 am Ours is 15yrs, I'm crossing everything that can be crossed! Our dishwasher is leaking, so, hoping it's a minor thing that hubby can fix. So glad I married a man who's good with his hands!

	bellepepper Jul. 19, 2012 5:14 am Thanks Lucky! Our unit is 10 years old and this is the 2nd motor we've had to replace this summer. First was the motor on the furnace fan that delivers the cooled air and yesterday it was the motor on the air conditioner's compressor. Still, it could have been worse.

	Deb C Jul. 19, 2012 5:35 am Yay - glad to hear your AC is up and running. It was a tough few days to not have it.
